September is
National Library Card
Sign-up Month!
 
 
From borrowing books, ebooks, and audiobooks to getting homework help, learning new skills, or attending a book club or story time, a library card helps everyone do more of what they enjoy. All without stretching their budget.

To sign up for a library card or to learn more about the library’s resources and programs, please visit our website. 
 
There’s something for everyone at the library and signing up for a library card is the first step on the path to academic achievement and lifelong learning for students. It's elemental, really—everyone should have one!
 
During September, your library will host Library Card Sign-up activities. Visit our online calendar for more details.
